My 7 essential tools for my yoga / wellness activity

May 16, 2023 | Business & Mindset

An inspiring place, the noise of nature, or mantras… And also some software that saves me a lot of time and helps me do everything I have to do for my activity.

I share with you some of these tools here.

Google Drive: to have my documents (courses, invoices, schedule, plan of the year…), stored and saved. And also on hand even if I don’t have my computer (or if it lets me go, because yes, it always happens at the wrong time or when we thought we were going to save our documents and that finally, we didn’t do it).

Spotify: for music. For me and for my students. I think it’s the platform is a real nugget to find beautiful music for classes, work, relax,… I also share a new playlist with my students every month. They love it.

Zoom: for my online courses and appointments, group coaching calls… This remains the most accessible and stable reference platform. The choice of a platform depends on your needs and use. You can upgrade your plan to host your recordings on the Zoom cloud if you reach the capacity.

Canva: for small graphic works (visual for courses and workshops, also possible for posters, ebook,…). I also use InDesign, a software used by graphic designers, which still requires a license and a good grip and training.

Royalty-free music: Yoga teachers and studios often use YouTube, Deezer or Spotify to display music during the class. It is easy to connect a phone or laptop to a sound system or speaker via bluetooth. To use royalty-free music for guided meditation or yoga videos, I use YouTube Audio library for example. 

Images: I usually recommend to use your own images and photos. Don’t look for super high quality photos of you. People just want to connect with the real you. I otherwise use Unsplash and Canva to find free of use Photos and illustrations.  

Vimeo: to host and share my videos without advertising. I think it’s more pro than YouTube for my students to whom I send the recordings of our private lessons (of course if it’s your main social network, it’s very good ;)).

I also use the Pomodoro technique. The Pomodoro technique is a technique that helps you take the right number of breaks while continuing to work. Traditionally, it divides your day into 25-minute concentration sessions followed by five-minute breaks. It is the ideal time to move forward on things to do and without exhausting yourself. There are applications where you can simply use your phone’s timer.

For social networks, I focus on a main (and a secondary) platform. This way, I don’t get lost in a multitude of social networks. I also regularly take digital breaks (or even very regularly, especially when I feel that it takes my energy and positivity). I also post 99% spontaneously. As a result, I do not use post management tools to schedule them over a week or a month. I’ll tell you soon why.

What is your favorite social network? None (it’s possible;)), Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok,…

And you, what tools do you use?
